Love is . . . .
To look upon a new borns eyes
and see devotion beyond all that is
To see the first flower of spring
emerge from this hallowed ground
The wings of a bird
as she soars and swoops the land so
when words neednt be spoken
but a whisper said lasts forever
when rain falls upon you so
and yet it clenses you
when the suns on your face
as you lay together beneath a tree
when she looks at you
and you see beyond all that is
when your hand is held fast
and though let go always binded
when forgiveness comes for them being human
in that we all make mistakes
when tears fall and you capture them
in outstretched hands and kiss
from whence they came from
to ask for aid and soloution
and to be shown the way
when held in arms of comfort
and never let go to be alone
to watch the leafs crown the trees
in all colours of the day
when a lark sings its sonnet
and you smile wistfully
when the stars in the nite skies shine down
and each one reminds you of but her
when all is said and done along the journey
and yet its like the very first time
you saw her so
when she whispers unto you
words and secrets that tingle the body
caress the mind and reverberate the heart
when naked led there upon the bed
and you hold each other close
on through the nite
when no matter time and distance
you breathe as but one
when she simply says
I Love You

Beautifully well-written.
I can extract all the "scientific truth" from theme of this poem, but, I have never known the "experiential truth", nor will I ever.
Very well-done, m8. Your talent never ceases to amaze me.
